+# Termux Launcher
 
 [Termux](https://termux.com) is an Android terminal application and Linux environment.
+This fork is being regularly updated and developed by chedim as keyboard-driven launcher with android application autocompletion.
+Android application names can be entered directly as bash commands or as arguments to `termux-launch`.
+
+Please note that you need to also install [customized termux-api](https://github.com/chedim/termux-api) for termux-launch to work.
+Inspired by Thewisenerd's [termux-setup-apps patch](https://github.com/thewisenerd/termux-app/commit/b877a81b999179af2d702b8929b6d20e29dde054)
 
 Note that this repository is for the app itself (the user interface and the terminal emulation). For the packages installable inside the app, see [termux/termux-packages](https://github.com/termux/termux-packages).
